Hi Aurel, thanks for posting this great express example. I'm having some issues getting going with the import express from "express" command. When I switch it to a const express = require('express') it seems to work. I believe this is due to the fact that NodeJS does not currently support ES6 import statements, is that correct? Or am I out of date on that thinking? Love the simplicity of this first tutorial and glad I was introduced to pug. It's a pretty cool little module!

I use babel behind the scenes which allows me to use
import. and other ES6 features.Have you tried cloning the project, it is configured for ES6 features to work
I had not cloned it yet, but it makes sense now. Thanks for clarifying the 'issue' I was seeing.
Patrick, if you are interested, I wrote a tutorial on how I quickly make use of babel (and webpack) to get ES6 working. You can read about it here
